The EU loan of \u20ac90 billion in 2026\u20132027 was supposed to cover two-thirds of Ukraine’s needs. At the same time, the European Union is currently focused on disbursements within this amount.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was announced by the European Commission’s chief spokeswoman, Paula Pinho, when answering a question about how to close Ukraine’s defense budget deficit.<\/p>\n

The European Commission recalled that the two-year loan of 90 billion euros should cover two-thirds of Ukraine’s budgetary and military needs in 2026-2027.<\/p>\n

“When we proposed a loan for Ukraine in the amount of 90 billion euros, the idea was that it would cover the budgetary and defense needs for 2026-2027 – two-thirds of these needs. That was the calculation,” explained Pinho.<\/p>\n

At the same time, she said, there is still a third of the needs that the EU cannot cover on its own. Therefore, European partners are calling on other countries to join in financing Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Pinho also noted that loan payments are contingent on Ukraine implementing reforms, which she said is an important condition of the program.<\/p>\n

“We are making very good progress with the disbursements based on Ukraine’s requests, which are currently being assessed, but they are linked to reforms that are being gradually implemented. Such a disbursement plan is already extremely ambitious in itself,” said a spokeswoman for the European Commission.<\/p>\n

In particular, she stressed that significant needs remain in Ukraine to counter further Russian aggression. However, the EU is currently focused primarily on implementing the already agreed payment plan.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced an agreement with the EU that would allow British defense companies to participate in contracts to support Ukraine.<\/a><\/p>\n
